Class NeighborArray


  • public class NeighborArray
    extends Object
    NeighborArray encodes the neighbors of a node and their mutual scores in the HNSW graph as a pair of growable arrays. Nodes are arranged in the sorted order of their scores in descending order (if scoresDescOrder is true), or in the ascending order of their scores (if scoresDescOrder is false)
    NOTE: This API is for internal purposes only and might change in incompatible ways in the next release.
    • Constructor Detail

      • NeighborArray

        public NeighborArray​(int maxSize,
                             boolean descOrder)
    • Method Detail

      • addInOrder

        public void addInOrder​(int newNode,
                               float newScore)
        Add a new node to the NeighborArray. The new node must be worse than all previously stored nodes. This cannot be called after addOutOfOrder(int, float)
      • addOutOfOrder

        public void addOutOfOrder​(int newNode,
                                  float newScore)
        Add node and newScore but do not insert as sorted
      • addAndEnsureDiversity

        public void addAndEnsureDiversity​(int newNode,
                                          float newScore,
                                          int nodeId,
                                          RandomVectorScorerSupplier scorerSupplier)
                                   throws IOException
        In addition to addOutOfOrder(int, float), this function will also remove the least-diverse node if the node array is full after insertion

        In multi-threading environment, this method need to be locked as it will be called by multiple threads while other add method is only supposed to be called by one thread.

        Parameters:
        nodeId - node Id of the owner of this NeighbourArray
        Throws:
        IOException
      • size

        public int size()
      • nodes

        public int[] nodes()
        Direct access to the internal list of node ids; provided for efficient writing of the graph
        NOTE: This API is for internal purposes only and might change in incompatible ways in the next release.
      • scores

        public float[] scores()
      • clear

        public void clear()
